Just in case there are any other people here that are preachers or serious Bible students, there is a great sale going on at www.christianbook.com which is the website for Christian Book Distributors. There are many really good deals found there for large sets and single religious books. But here are the deals I found most useful for me...
Kittel's Theological Dictionary of the New Testament (10 Volumes) - $99.99. This is still the standard work for word study in the Greek new testament.
Zondervan Pictorial Encyclopedia of the Bible (5 Volumes) - $49.99. This set is a reference work which handles just about anything dealing with the Bible. Tenney was the editor with many different authors providing the articles. It is more evangelical and conservative.
Barne's Notes on the Bible (14 Volumes) - $74.99. I think the Barne's notes are well known enough - one of the most popular commentaries out there.
Keil & Delitzsch Commentary on the Old Testament (10 Volumes) - $69.99. Don't know too much about this set besides that it has been strongly recommended to me by multiple preachers.
There are many other deals going on at this website. If you have any books that you know you'd like, it's worth it to go there and run a search and see if they might just have it at the price you want.
BTW - i failed to mention it in the original posting, but when you are checking out, place this in your bookbag as well. It's a $5 one year fee for membership which will get you the absolute lowest price on your purchases. The Barne's Notes were $99.99 in my bookbag until i put the $5 membership fee in the bookbag too, then the notes dropped to $74.99. So it was well worth it. It's worth it just to put it in to see if it makes any difference to what you're purchasing. If it doesn't, simply take it out.
